VERSE 1:

C           Em            |Am     Am7  |
  I used to wake up in the morning,
G                  |G   G7  |
  I used to feel so bad.
C       Em            |Am        Am7   |
  I got sick of having sleepless nights,
G                   |./.
  I went and told my dad.
        |Am             Am7        |F         E7  |
He said: Son now here’s some little somethings.
Am                Am7   |G   G7  |
   And stuck them on my  wall.
C            Em                    |Am    Am7         |
  And now my nights aren’t quite so lonely.  In fact I,
G                    |./.    |./.                   |./.    |
  I don’t feel bad at all,       I don’t feel bad at all.

VERSE 2:

C              Em                |Am       Am7  |
  And then one day things weren’t quite so fine,

  I fell in love with Lily.
C            Em            |Am      Am7         |

   Oh how I cried that night.
C         Em            |Am     Am7  |
  If only I’d be born in Lily’s time,
G                      |./.     |./.    |
  it would have been al-ri- ght.
